Micron MT9HTF6472F-667F1D4 1GB Kit DDR2-667MHz FB-DIMM 1Rx8 CL5 Memory

Product Description

The Micron MT9HTF6472F-667F1D4 represents a 1GB memory module engineered for server-grade computing platforms. It utilizes DDR2 technology, operating at a frequency of 667MHz, which was a standard for high-performance servers during its era. The module's designation as an FB-DIMM (Fully Buffered DIMM) signifies its advanced architecture, which incorporates an Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB) chip. This AMB chip is crucial for managing signal integrity and buffering data between the memory controller and the DRAM chips, enabling higher memory densities and improved performance in multi-processor systems. The 1Rx8 configuration indicates that the memory is single-rank, with each rank consisting of DRAM chips that are 8 bits wide. This configuration is common in server memory modules and affects how the memory controller accesses data. The CL5 (CAS Latency 5) timing parameter specifies the delay between the memory controller issuing a column-address command and the data becoming available on the module's output pins. Lower CAS latency generally translates to faster response times. This specific Micron module is designed to enhance the memory capacity and reliability of servers. FB-DIMMs were particularly beneficial in systems with many memory slots, as the buffering mechanism reduced the electrical load on the memory controller, allowing for more modules to be populated. The MT9HTF6472F-667F1D4 is a component that contributes to the overall stability and performance of demanding server environments where uptime and data integrity are critical.
